EXHIBIT 4.1
WARRANT AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
This Warrant and Registration Rights Agreement (the "Agreement") is made
---------
and entered into as of October 6, 2000, by and between TIVO, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and DIRECTV, Inc., a California corporation
-------
("DIRECTV").
---------
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to grant to DIRECTV, and DIRECTV wishes to
acquire from the Company, rights to purchase shares of the Company's common
stock, pursuant to common stock warrants (the "Warrants") in the form attached
--------
hereto as Exhibit A, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
---------
WHEREAS, the Warrants shall be issued to DIRECTV in connection with certain
marketing agreements, by and among the Company, DIRECTV and authorized
manufacturers parties thereto (the "Marketing Agreements"), relating to the
--------------------
manufacture and distribution of the DIRECTV-TiVo combination set-top box
(referred to herein as the "Combo Box"). All capitalized terms not defined
---------
herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Marketing Agreement.
WHEREAS, DIRECTV is a party to that certain Ninth Amended and Restated
Investor Rights Agreement, dated August 6, 1999 by and among the Company and the
investors listed on the signature pages thereto (the "Investor Rights
---------------
Agreement").
WHEREAS, the Company and DIRECTV wish to enter into certain arrangements
with respect to the Warrants and the underlying shares of common stock.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein,
the parties hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS
1.1 Warrant Shares. Subject to the Buy-Down Adjustment (defined below),
--------------
the Company shall issue transferable Warrants to DIRECTV to purchase [*] shares
of common stock of the Company (the "Shares") for each Buy-Down Payment (as
------
defined below) made by DIRECTV (excluding those amounts that may be reimbursed
to DIRECTV by the Company as provided in Section 1.3 below) to subsidize a Combo
Box during the Effective Period.
(a) Buy-Down Adjustment. Pursuant to the Marketing Agreement, during
-------------------
the Effective Period each of the Company and DIRECTV shall make a subsidy
payment to authorized DIRECTV dealers of the Combo Box for each Combo Box sold
(each a "Buy-Down Payment"), in the amount of [*] each. The [*] Buy-Down Payment
----------------
made by DIRECTV shall be incremental to, and not in lieu of, DIRECTV's payment
of its standard equipment subsidies, commissions, and/or buy-downs (whether
provided
[*] Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed
separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
to manufacturers or retailers). In the event that DIRECTV's [*] Buy-Down Payment
of any Combo Box is not incremental to its standard equipment subsidies,
commissions and/or buy-downs, the number of Shares issuable to DIRECTV for that
Combo Box shall be adjusted in accordance with the following calculation (the
"Buy-Down Adjustment"):
-------------------
X = ([*] Shares) x [(Y)/([*])]
where
X = number of shares issuable to DIRECTV with respect to a particular
Combo Box; and
Y = the actual dollar amount of the incremental equipment subsidy
paid by DIRECTV for that Combo Box.
(b) Warrant Exercise Price. The exercise price specified for each
----------------------
Warrant shall be calculated as the average daily closing price of a share of
common stock of the Company as reported on the NASDAQ National Market for the
five (5) trading days prior to and including the last trading day of the month
in which the Buy-Down Payments relating to the Warrant were made. DIRECTV, at
its sole discretion, may utilize a "cashless exercise" of the Warrants, pursuant
to Section 3(b) of the Warrant.
1.2 Issuance Date. Following the close of each calendar month during the
-------------
Effective Period, the Company will issue a Warrant to DIRECTV, which Warrant
shall cover the number of Shares issuable based on the aggregate of the Buy-Down
Payments made by DIRECTV (subject to the Buy-Down Adjustment) during such
preceding calendar month. In the case of staggered Buy-Down Payments to
retailers, the Company will issue to DIRECTV Warrants with respect to a Combo
Box for the applicable calendar month based on the incremental amounts paid by
DIRECTV toward the [*] Buy-Down Payment. The issuance of a Warrant shall occur
within 15 days following the date upon which DIRECTV reports to the Company the
information relating to the prior month's Buy-Down Payments made to the
authorized dealers. DIRECTV agrees to provide the Company with such information
and materials as reasonably required by the Company to verify the aggregate
amount of Buy-Down Payments made by DIRECTV.
1.3 Combo Box Payment Plan. During the term of the Combo Box subsidy
----------------------
program, DIRECTV has agreed to pay its authorized dealers of the Combo Box the
Buy-Down Payment (on behalf of itself and the Company) for each Combo Box sold.
Accordingly, the Company hereby agrees to pay its portion of the Buy-Down
Payment to DIRECTV. The payment terms from the Company to DIRECTV shall not be
less than ten (10) business days or more than twenty (20) business days from
receipt of an invoice by the Company from DIRECTV. DIRECTV and the Company will
collaborate on a mutually acceptable invoicing process including but not limited
to the frequency and method of payment of the Company's portion of the Buy-Down
Payment. In the event the Company fails to make payment to DIRECTV pursuant to
the standard payment terms outlined, DIRECTV shall have the right to offset and
net amounts due to DIRECTV from the Company for its portion of the Buy-Down
Payment, from any monies due to the Company from DIRECTV. Prior to exercising
this right of offset,
[*] Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed
separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential
treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
DIRECTV agrees to notify the controller of the Company via facsimile of the
exercise thereof. Any and all amounts offset by DIRECTV in accordance herewith
shall be subject to the reasonable review by the Company and subject to the
dispute resolution provision outlined in Section 1.5 below.
1.4 Combo Box Reporting. As part of the payment plan set forth in
-------------------
Section 1.3 above, DIRECTV will provide to the Company copies of invoices and
monthly summaries of invoices from the applicable DIRECTV retailers
participating in the Combo Box subsidy program, as received and available to
DIRECTV. The summaries will provide information sufficient to allow the Company
to confirm the number of Combo Boxes sold (on a monthly and aggregate basis),
the aggregate amount of the Buy-Down Payments, the Company's payment obligations
on the aggregate Buy-Down Payment, and the payment due date. The monthly
summaries may reflect certain adjustments deemed appropriate in the reasonable
discretion of DIRECTV to the numbers provided in the retailer invoices. Such
adjustments will be incorporated within the subsequent invoices and summaries
provided to the Company.
1.5 Dispute Resolution. In the event of an accounting dispute arising
------------------
from the Combo Box subsidy program between DIRECTV and the Company, including
but not limited to (i) the amount of the Buy-Down Payment, (ii) the dollar
amounts due to DIRECTV from the Company, and (iii) the number of Combo Boxes
sold, DIRECTV and the Company agree to communicate such dispute within ten (10)
business days of receipt of such invoice and/or monthly summaries. Further, the
parties agree to collaborate on a remedy of such a dispute as promptly as
commercially reasonable or not less than thirty (30) business days from notice
of dispute. In the event the dispute is not resolved within such thirty-day
period, the parties shall be entitled to exercise any and all legal and
equitable remedies available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

------

of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Warrants, the performance of
all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder and the authorization,
issuance and delivery of the Warrants has been taken, and this Agreement and the

shares of common stock to be issued upon exercise of the Warrant have been duly
authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company, and the Shares, when issued
in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.
2.3 Capitalization. As of September 30, 2000, the authorized capital of
--------------
the Company consists of (i) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which

2,711,861 shares of which are issued and outstanding and (ii) 150,000,000 shares
of common stock, 43,228,306 shares of which are issued and outstanding. All of

with the terms thereof and the compliance by the Company with the provisions
hereof or thereof (i) are not and will not be inconsistent with the Company's
Charter or Bylaws, (ii) do not and will not contravene any law, governmental
rule or regulation, judgment or order applicable to the Company, and (iii) do
not and will not contravene any material provision of, or constitute a default

Company is a party or by which it is bound or require the consent or approval
of, the giving of notice to, the registration with or the taking of any action
in respect of or by, any federal, state or local government authority or agency
or other person, except for such actions as may be required to comply with

ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER
3.1 Authorization; Binding Obligation. All corporate action on the part
---------------------------------
of DIRECTV, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement has been
taken. This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of
DIRECTV, enforceable against DIRECTV in accordance with its terms, except
insofar as enforceability may be limited
by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other laws which may affect creditors'
rights and remedies generally and by principles of equity.
3.2 Investment Intent of DIRECTV. DIRECTV is purchasing the Warrants and
----------------------------
Shares issued upon exercise thereof for investment for its own account only and
not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof
within the meaning of the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.
DIRECTV further represents, warrants and agrees that the Warrants and Shares
have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities
laws by reason of specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions depend upon,
among other things, the bona fide nature of DIRECTV's investment intent as
expressed herein. DIRECTV represents, warrants and agrees that the Warrants, and
any Shares purchased upon exercise thereof, must be held indefinitely unless
such securities are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and all
applicable state securities laws and regulations or an exemption from such
registration or qualification is available, and that the Company is under no
obligation to register or qualify such securities except as set forth in this
Agreement or in the Warrants.
3.3 Accredited Investor. DIRECTV is an "accredited investor" (as such
-------------------
term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act).
3.4 Legends. DIRECTV acknowledges, understands and agrees that the
-------
instruments evidencing the Warrants and any certificates evidencing the Shares
(and common stock issuable upon conversion thereof) shall bear the legends as
specified in the Warrants, other agreements entered into in the connection with
the issuance of the Shares and any other legends required under state or federal
securities laws in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company.
ARTICLE IV
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
4.1 Registration on Form S-3.
------------------------
(a) Subject to this Section 4.1 and to the rights of stockholders of
the Company pursuant to Investor Rights Agreement, if the Company shall receive
a written request from DIRECTV that the Company file a registration statement on
Form S-3 under the Securities Act, covering the registration of Shares issued
upon the conversion of the Warrants having an anticipated aggregate offering
price to the public of at least $1,000,000, then the Company shall, within
forty-five (45) days of the receipt thereof, file a registration statement
(which may be, but is not limited to, a shelf registration under Rule 415) and
use its best efforts to cause the same to be declared effective as promptly as
practicable.
(b) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration
pursuant to this Section 4.1 after the Company has effected three (3) demand
registrations
pursuant to this Section 4.1 and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to
DIRECTV a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the
good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, that the filing of
such registration statement would have a material adverse effect on the Company
and it is therefore essential to deter the filing of such registration
statement, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of
not more than 120 days after receipt of DIRECTV's request for registration. In
the event the Company defers the filing of the registration statement, such
request to file the registration statement by DIRECTV shall not count as a
demand request pursuant to Section 4.1(b) above.
4.2 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify DIRECTV in writing
-----------------------
at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing of any registration statement
under the Securities Act for purposes of a public offering of securities of the
Company (including, but not limited to, registration statement relating to
secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding registration
statements relating to employee benefit plans or with respect to corporate
reorganizations or other transactions under Rule 145 of the Securities Act) and,
subject to the rights of stockholders under the Investor Rights Agreement, will
afford DIRECTV an opportunity to include the Shares in such registration
statement. If DIRECTV decides not to include all of its Shares in any
registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, DIRECTV shall
nevertheless continue to have the right to include its Shares in any subsequent
registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company
with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions
set forth herein.
(a) Underwriting. If the registration statement under which the
------------
Company gives notice under this Section 4.2 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise DIRECTV of such event in the above-described notice.
The right of DIRECTV to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section
4.2 shall be conditioned upon DIRECTV's participation in such underwriting and
the inclusion of DIRECTV's Shares in the underwriting to the extent provided
herein. DIRECTV shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the
Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, if the
underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation
of the number of shares to be included in the underwritten registration, then
the Shares shall be included in the registration statement on a pro rata basis
with the shares to be registered on behalf of selling stockholders (other than
Holders) and on a subordinate basis to the shares registered on behalf of the
Company and on behalf of the Holders of Registrable Securities (each as defined
in the Investor Rights Agreement) pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, to
the extent that the amount of securities included in the registration on behalf
of selling stockholders exceeds 30% of the total amount of securities included
in such registration.
(b) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right
-------------------------------
to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 4.2
prior to the effectiveness of such whether or not DIRECTV has elected to include
securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn
registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.3
hereof.
4.3 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided herein, all
------------------------
expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof,
including without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing
expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and
expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any
such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the
Company which shall be paid in any event by the Company (the "Registration
------------
Expenses")) shall be borne by the Company. All underwriting discounts and
--------
selling commissions applicable to the sale of the Shares shall be borne by
DIRECTV and all of the selling stockholders participating in such registered
offering, pro rata on the basis of the number of selling stockholders' shares
registered in the offering.
4.4 Subordination of Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
-----------------------
Section 4, all registration rights set forth in this Section 4 shall be subject
to and subordinate to (i) those rights granted to the Holders under the Investor
Rights Agreement and (ii) those rights granted to America Online, Inc. under the
Stockholders and Registration Rights Agreement by and between the Company and
America Online, Inc., dated as of June 9, 2000.
4.5 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the
--------------------------
registration of any Shares, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably
possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Shares and use all reasonable efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective, and, upon the request of DIRECTV, keep such
registration statement effective for up to ninety (90) days or, if earlier,
until DIRECTV has completed the distribution related thereto.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement.
(c) Furnish to DIRECTV such number of copies of a prospectus,
including, where applicable, a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as DIRECTV may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Shares owned by
DIRECTV.
(d) Use all reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by DIRECTV, provided
that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition
thereto to
qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any
such states or jurisdictions.
(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and
perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary
form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. DIRECTV shall also
enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify DIRECTV at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing.
(g) Furnish, at the request of DIRECTV, on the date that such Shares
are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold
through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel
representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and
substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public
offering and reasonably satisfactory to DIRECTV, addressed to the underwriters,
if any, and to DIRECTV and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the
independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance
as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to
DIRECTV, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable
accounting standards, to DIRECTV.
(h) Cause all such Shares registered pursuant hereto to be listed on
each securities exchange or quoted on each quotation system on which similar
securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted.
(i) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Shares registered
pursuant hereto and a CUSIP number for all such Shares, in each case not later
than the effective date of such registration. Cooperate and assist in any
filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc.
4.6 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to DIRECTV the
------------------
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale
of the Shares to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its
best efforts to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule
promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times;
(b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act;
(c) So long as DIRECTV owns any Shares, furnish to DIRECTV upon
request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and of the
Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company; and such other reports and documents as DIRECTV may reasonably request
in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any
such securities without registration.
ARTICLE V
INDEMNIFICATION
5.1 Company Indemnification. In the event any Shares are included in a
-----------------------
registration statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless DIRECTV, its officers, directors and legal counsel, any
underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for DIRECTV and each person, if
any who controls DIRECTV or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act
or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint
or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
"Violation") by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
----------
statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering
covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse DIRECTV
and such officers, directors, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1
shall neither apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by DIRECTV or such
officer, director, or controlling person of DIRECTV.
5.2 Indemnification by DIRECTV. In the event any Shares are included in a
--------------------------
registration statement pursuant to this Agreement, DIRECTV will indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, legal counsel and
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act, any
underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration
statement or any of such other Holder's partners, directors or officers or any
person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling
person, underwriter or other such other Holder, or partner, or any such
director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, by DIRECTV from (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or
(iii) any violation or alleged violation by DIRECTV of the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in
connection with the offering covered by such registration statement in each case
set forth in items (i), (ii) and (iii), to the extent (and only to the extent)
that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by DIRECTV under an instrument duly executed by DIRECTV
and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration; and
DIRECTV will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel, controlling person,
underwriter or other Holder, or partner, officer, director, legal counsel or
controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially
determined that there was such a Violation by DIRECTV; provided, however, that
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall neither apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of DIRECTV, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, the obligation to
indemnify shall be several and not joint and that in no event shall any
indemnity under this Section 5.2 exceed the net proceeds from the offering
received by DIRECTV.
5.3 Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
------
Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 5, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the
counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the
indemnified party under this Section 5, but the omission so to deliver written
notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it
may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 5.
5.4 Judicial Determination of Fault. If the indemnification provided for
-------------------------------
in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable
to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable
law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one
hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the
Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court
of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and
the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement of omission.
5.5 Survival of Indemnification Obligations. The obligations of the
---------------------------------------
Company and DIRECTV under this Section 5 shall survive completion of any
offering of Shares in a registration statement and the termination of this
Agreement. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation
shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an
unconditional term thereof he giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation.

TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS WARRANT OR SAID SHARES MAY BE
EFFECTED WITHOUT (i) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO,

TIVO INC.
WARRANT TO PURCHASE
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
No. [ ] Issuance Date: [ ]
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, DIRECTV, Inc., a California
corporation ("DIRECTV"), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase _________
-------
shares (as adjusted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the "Shares") of the
------
common stock of TiVo Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at the
-------
Exercise Price (defined below), upon such terms and conditions as hereinafter
set forth. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings set
forth Warrant and Registration Rights Agreement dated as of October 6, 2000
between DIRECTV and the Company (the "Warrant Agreement").
-----------------
1. Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in
---------------
part, during the term commencing on the Issuance Date and ending at 5:00 p.m.
Pacific Time on the second anniversary of the Issuance Date.
2. Exercise Price. The purchase price for the Shares shall be $[ ] per
--------------
share.
3. Method of Exercise; Net Issue Exercise.
--------------------------------------
(a) Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrant. This
----------------------------------------------------
Warrant may be exercised by DIRECTV, in whole or in part, by the surrender of
this
Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 duly
executed) at the principal office of the Company and by the payment to the
Company, by cash, check, wire transfer in immediately available funds or
cancellation of indebtedness, of an amount equal to the Exercise Price per share
multiplied by the number of Shares then being purchased hereunder. The person or
persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing Shares shall be
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the
holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record
holder(s) of, the Shares represented thereby (and such Shares shall be deemed to
have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date or
dates upon which this Warrant is exercised. In the event of any exercise of this
Warrant, certificates for the Shares so purchased shall be delivered to DIRECTV
as soon as possible and in any event within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such
notice and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or expired, a new
Warrant representing the portion of the Shares, if any, with respect to which
this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to DIRECTV
as soon as possible thereafter.
(b) Right to Convert Warrant into Stock; Net Issuance. In addition to
-------------------------------------------------
and without limiting the rights of DIRECTV under the terms of this Warrant and
in lieu of exercising this Warrant under Section 3(a) above, DIRECTV may elect
to convert this Warrant (the "Conversion Right") into shares of common stock,
----------------
the aggregate value of which shares shall be equal to the value of this Warrant.
The Conversion Right may be exercised by DIRECTV by surrender of this Warrant at
the principal office of the Company (with the Notice of Exercise form attached
hereto as Exhibit A-1 duly executed), in which event the Company shall issue to
DIRECTV a number of shares of the Company's common stock computed using the
following formula:
X = Y (A-B)
-------
A
Where: X = The number of shares of common stock to be issued to
DIRECTV.
Y = The number of shares of common stock covered by this Warrant in
respect of which the net issue election is made pursuant to this
Section 3(b).
A = The closing price of one share of the Company's common stock as
reported on the Nasdaq National Market on the trading day
immediately preceding the date that the Exercise Notice is
delivered to the Company.
B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).
4. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. All Shares to be issued upon
---------------------------------------
the exercise of this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all liens and charges with
respect to the issuance thereof. During the period within which this Warrant
may be exercised, the Company will at all times have duly authorized and
reserved, for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, a
sufficient number of shares of common stock.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for shares of
---------------------------
common stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
DIRECTV for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of
the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid
by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the
registered holder of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by
the registered holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that upon any transfer
-----------------
involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for shares of common
stock, the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum
sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
6. Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The number and
--------------------------------------------------
kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
(a) Reclassification; Consolidation or Merger. In case of any
-----------------------------------------
reclassification of the Company's common stock (other than a change in par
value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a consolidation or merger with another corporation in which the Company is
a continuing corporation and in which the Company's stockholders immediately
preceding such consolidation or merger own at least 50% of the voting securities
of the Company following such consolidation or merger and which does not result
in any reclassification of the shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant),
or in the case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation as the case
may be, shall execute a new Warrant, providing that DIRECTV shall have the right
to exercise such new Warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the
same aggregate Exercise Price, in lieu of the shares of common stock theretofore
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock,
other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification,
change, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
or merger by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of common stock. Such
new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as
may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6. The
provisions of this subsection (a) shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, and the sale of all or substantially
all of the Company's assets.
(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
------------------------------------
while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine
its common stock, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the
case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
(c) Stock Dividends and other Distributions. If the Company at any
---------------------------------------
time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall pay a dividend with
respect to common stock payable in, or make any other distribution with respect
to, common stock
(except any distribution specifically provided for in the foregoing subsections
6(a) or 6(b)), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the
date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (1) the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of common stock
outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (2) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of common stock
outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution.
(d) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the
------------------------------
Exercise Price pursuant to subsections 6(a)-(c) hereof, the number of shares of
common stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole
share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of common
stock purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Exercise Price by
a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately prior
to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price
immediately thereafter.
(e) Certificate as to Adjustment. In each case of any adjustment in
----------------------------
either the Exercise Price or in the number of shares of common stock, or other
stock, securities or property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant, the
Company shall compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant and prepare a certificate signed by its Chief Financial Officer,
President or other designated officer setting forth such adjustment and showing
in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, including a
statement of the adjusted Exercise Price. The Company will cause copies of such
certificate to be mailed to the registered holder.
7. Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Company of a
----------------------
record of its stockholders for the purpose of determining stockholders who are
entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any share of any class or any other
securities or property, or to receive any other right, or for the purpose of
determining stockholders who are entitled to vote in connection with any
proposed merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other
corporation, or any proposed sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, or any proposed liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, then, in connection with each such event, the Company
shall mail to DIRECTV at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution, right(s) or vote of the stockholders. Each such written notice
shall specify the amount and character of any such dividend, distribution or
right(s), and shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the matter requiting any
such vote of the stockholders.
8. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued
-----------------
in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares
the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based upon the closing price of
the common stock as reported on the NASDAQ National Market on the trading day
immediately prior to the date the Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company.
9. Compliance with Securities Act; Disposition of Warrant or Shares of
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Common stock.
------------
(a) Compliance with Securities Act. DIRECTV, by acceptance hereof,
------------------------------
agrees that this Warrant and the Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are
being acquired for investment and that DIRECTV will not offer, sell or otherwise
dispose of this Warrant or any Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof (or
common stock issued upon conversion of such Shares) except under circumstances
which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act. This Warrant and all
Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant (unless registered under the
Securities Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the
following form:
THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (i)
AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL IN FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY
THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED AND THAT AN APPLICABLE
EXEMPTION IS AVAILABLE, OR (iii) RECEIPT OF A NO-ACTION LETTER FROM
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION
UNDER THE ACT IS NOT REQUIRED.
(b) Disposition of Warrant and Shares. With respect to any offer,
---------------------------------
sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any Shares acquired pursuant to the
exercise of this Warrant prior to registration thereof, DIRECTV and each
subsequent holder of this Warrant agrees to give written notice to the Company
prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written
opinion of such holder's counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the
effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without
registration or qualification (under the Securities Act as then in effect or any
federal or state law then in effect) of this Warrant or such Shares and
indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for this Warrant
or such Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive
legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure
compliance with the Securities Act. Each certificate representing this Warrant
or the Shares thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall
bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to
insure compliance with the Securities Act unless, in the aforesaid opinion of
counsel for DIRECTV, such legend is not required in order to insure compliance
with the Securities Act. Nothing herein shall restrict the transfer of this
Warrant or any portion hereof by DIRECTV to its parent Company or other
affiliates fully owned and/or controlled by DIRECTV or its parent Company,
provided such transfer may be made in compliance with applicable federal and
state securities laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its
transfer agent in connection with the foregoing restrictions.
10. No Rights as Stockholders. No holder of this Warrant, as such, shall
-------------------------
be entitled to the rights of a stockholder or to vote upon any matter submitted
to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice of meetings, or be
deemed the holder of common stock or entitled to the rights of a holder of
common stock under the Investor Rights Agreement, unless and until this Warrant
shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon such exercise shall
have become deliverable, as provided herein.
11. Registration Rights. The rights of DIRECTV and the obligations of the
-------------------
Company with respect to registration of the Shares issuable exercise of this
Warrant under the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations
thereunder are as set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the provisions of which
are incorporated by reference herein with the same effect as if set forth in
full herein. Except as set forth in the Warrant Agreement and the Investor
Rights Agreement, the Company is not, pursuant to the terms of any other
agreement currently in existence, under any obligation to register under the
Securities Act any of its presently outstanding securities or any of its
securities which may hereafter be issued.
12. Exchange and Registry of Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon
--------------------------------
the surrender hereof by the registered holder at the above-mentioned office or
agency of the Company, for a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such
exchange. The Company shall maintain at the above-mentioned office or agency a
registry showing the name and address of the registered holder. This Warrant may
be surrendered for exchange, transfer or exercise, in accordance with its terms,
at such office or agency of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to
rely in all respects, prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such
registry.
13. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
---------------------------------
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall be a legal holiday, then such
action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day
not a legal holiday.

signed by the party against which enforcement of the same is sought.
